You remember the family tree and all these Canadian cousins?
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=5256

Well. Now quite a few of us are in touch, and I've set up a group on fb for just the family (my mum's side). The cousin (M) who's done the family tree etc added a lot more members, including one whose name I didn't know at all.
I asked him who it was, and it turned out she's the niece of a Canadian cousin, and because she moved to London a few years ago had been given this cousin's contact details.
They've never met; M told me she seems to be a real party person and he didn't figure they'd be able to keep up with her, nor would she probably want much to do with him and his wife, it was just politeness that they were in contact.

So having messaged and been amused by each other, I happily said if she wanted a weekend away from the mayhem she was more than welcome. All of about 2 minutes later she said Yes please!
It won't be till after our holiday, so nice to have something else to look forward to
Who knows what else might come of one family photo

I remember the first time I met my second cousin and her husband, it was so exciting and such fun

Isn't that exciting?!

I caught John on Facebook inviting the daughter of one of his US cousins to stay if she's ever over here. We've met her quite a few times, the last time we saw her was a few days after Joe was born, and she was always a bit of a wild child but now she's got children of her own and said she'll be over when the youngest is more suited to travelling long haul so heaven's knows how many she's got and how many we'll have here
